I'm curious, and this is a bit more broad than Corona Virus issues:
But- are the leftists and their fierce opponents, I'll call them 'wingers', the only ones that believe the leftists BS?
I'm generally conservative, mostly libertarian, and I don't really give a phuck about CNN as much as I don't give a phuck about Fox News.
I know I'm a bit sheltered out here in Cake Eater Estates, but JFC, the actual number of people I see on FBook, etc that are going nuts are the same number that A) think Trump is the Devil and B) think Obama is the Devil. Hysteria on the fringes, meanwhile everyone else is like: "wash your hands".
Organic Food: Leftists- fight the power! Wingers- It's a socialist plot!..... Everyone else: Is it on sale?
Vegetarian/Vegan: Leftists- Meat kills people, the environment, causes climate change; Wingers- It's a Socialist Plot!..... Everyone else: you can make it taste like meat now?
Free Trade: Wingers- it's the downfall of modern social structures and how the Chinese will become our nefarious overloards; Leftists- it costs less for us to give free things to poor people! Everyone else: yeah, my company sells sh!t all over the world, I'd like to go to work tomorrow.
Gun Control: Wingers- they will LOCK YOU UP and keep you suppressed with the same guns they took from you; Leftists- You won't die if no one has a gun! ...... Everyone else: you know, a couple rules seem prudent
Stock market: Wingers- hyper reaction to leftist bull sh!t from the leftist media using leftist scare tactics; Leftists- this is what corporate greed deserves, Covid 19 for Wall Street! Everyone else- yeah, like no one was talking about a bubble and there would be a price correction.... and somehow people still thinks markets are rational.... okeh.....
I'm going back into self imposed non-comment land. It's quieter there, less people. PHUCK!
